I'm so sorry I havent updated in forever, my Internet was down for a while so I couldnt get on here to update but I had plenty of time to finish this chapter which is the last chapter of this story. I hope everyone who has read this story enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Well on with the chapter!!! Remember to review, reviews get you cookies!!!


This wasn't real, it wasn't happening this was a dream no a nightmare and soon he would wake up and he would be back in his room at the camp and Naruto would be sleeping in the bed beside him. Sitting beside his brothers hospital bed looking at his still body, he couldn't bring himself to believe that this was a dream. His brother was dying and there wasn't a thing he could do about it.

The steady sound of Itachi's heart monitor was the only sound that could be heard in the small hospital room. Sasuke stared silently at his brothers sleeping form, he'd been sitting in a chair beside him since Kakashi and Iruka had driven him here hours ago.

Naruto had tried to stay by his side but he had told him he needed to be alone with his brother. The sound of the heart monitor was becoming background noise. The doctor had come in not long ago to tell him what had happened to his brother. Itachi had collapsed during a meeting and brought immediately to the hospital.

Itachi had been diagnosed with a serious illness years ago but had never told his younger brother. He wanted so bad just to break down and cry, but he just couldn't. The tears wouldn't fall, none of this seemed real. It was just another one of his nightmares. He would wake up soon in the room he and Naruto shared.

He had hated his brother for years never knowing that he was dying day by day. Why hadn't Itachi told him that he was sick? Sasuke sat back suddenly as Itachi began to stir. His dark eyes opened looking straight at him. Sasuke stiffened not knowing how to react. "Sasuke." Itachi said horsley. "I always loved and cared about you Sasuke, please understand when mother and father died I was just as devastated, I was just being strong for you." Itachi's dark eyes were filled with love and sadness as he spoke to his younger brother.

"I'm sorry Itachi, for hating you." Sasuke said quietly. He held his brothers hand tightly trying to smile. Itachi smile at him, "I love you Sasuke." "Please don't say that like your saying goodbye, please." "I'm sorry sasuke but this is goodbye." The heart monitor went crazy the speed of the beeps getting faster.

Nurses rushed in pushing him to the corner. All he could do was watch as doctors tried to revive his brother, but he knew it was no use his brother the last of his family was gone. Time seemed to move slower the sound of the heart monitor faded. The lines becoming straight.

The world started to grow hazy. The images of the doctors and nurses blurring together. Their voices buzzing together. He heard them state the time of death then the world faded into darkness as he collided with the ground.

---------------------Sometimes you feel like breaking, giving up----------------------------

He was dreaming or he had gone back in time. Standing not far from him near their home was mother, father and Itachi. They were smiling at him, even father who normally wore a strict scowl. They were calling him to come closer.

He ran smiling and laughing so happy to see his family alive, but as hard as he ran he couldn't reach them. They kept getting farther and farther away, when he seemed to get close they vanished. Disappearing into the air. "No wait!" he screamed, running harder to get to them.

"Please mother, father, brother!." Tears were pouring down his face, he stopped falling to his knees in exhaustion. He could hear his heat beating fast in his ears, the sound never ending. He pounded his fists into the ground. "Don't go." He whispered between sobs. "Don't leave me alone, please."

He opened his eyes, seeing the white hospital ceiling. He sat up groaning at the pain in his skull. He opened his eyes fully gasping when seeing the hyperactive blond in his face. "Sasuke are you ok?" "The doctor said you hit your head pretty hard on the floor."

"I fainted?" "yea you went into shock when your brother—passed on." Naruto averted his eyes looking down at the floor. "It's true—he's dead." Sasuke asked. Naruto bit his lip. "yea." Sadness filled both their eyes, he sat back on the edge of the bed. "Im sorry Sasuke, he's gone."

Sasuke went silent his breathe hitching. His hands clenched the sheets tightly, his knuckles turning white. Warm tears pricked at his eyes. Not being able to hold them back they spilled over making wet spots on the sheets. The tears he couldn't shed finally came out.

"Sasuke." Naruto said gently reaching to touch Sasuke's hand. He swatted it away. "Don't. Touch. Me." He hissed pulling his hand away. Sasuke's bangs hung in his face making him seem dark. His sobs were unbearable for Naruto to hear, he didn't want Sasuke in pain, but he couldn't comfort him.

"He's gone and it's all my fault." Sasuke whispered to no one. He was staring at the wall at something that wasn't there. Something Naruto couldn't see, a whole different time and place.

Naruto sat there silent watching the person he cared about the most break down. "The doctor said you could leave as soon as you woke up, Kakashi is waiting on us." Sasuke dried his tears, he pulled the sheets off. He let Naruto lead him to the door. Kakashi met them at the entrance of the hospital, they got into the car and drove off.

The car ride was quite when they reached the mansion Iruka was waiting at the door. He hugged Sasuke tightly telling him that it would be ok. Sasuke didn't believe him. Sasuke walked into the mansion when Iruka let go.

Iruka looked at his retreating form concern written on his face. He turned to Naruto. "I think you should go make sure he's ok." Naruto nodded going into the house. He found Sasuke sitting on his bed in the dark his head buried In his knees.

He turned the lights on, the way Sasuke was shaking he knew he was crying. He sat on the edge of the bed beside Sasuke. He didn't really know what to say, he couldn't say it would be ok like Iruka did. He knew what losing your entire family felt like.

Sasuke had just lost the last part of his family, the last link to his sanity. Now that was gone. Sasuke was shattered, broken into a million pieces that Naruto had to somehow figure out how to put back together. The pain wasn't just going to fade away. It would take time and maybe would never fade at all. The ever present pain of losing his family wasn't gone.

It burned in the back of his mind, like a memory he would never forget. It had been years but the images of his parent's bloody corpses were always fresh in his mind. Nightmares re-created that night over and over never letting him forget. He knew it was the same with Sasuke, but Sasuke had had his brother.

Now he was gone too, the pain was back eating at him. He didn't know what to do anymore. Naruto only sat at Sasuke's side as he cried, he didn't think Sasuke even knew he was there. He wanted to hold him close lie and say everything was fine, but Sasuke didn't want him to touch him so he kept his distance.

Sasuke eventually fell asleep; Naruto covered him then slipped into his own bed. Hoping that Sasuke wouldn't retreat back into himself. Becoming anti-social and depressed again. Sasuke had him now, they shared the same pain, but Sasuke just wasn't as willing to talk about his problems like he was.

------------Sometimes you feel like screaming into the sky---------------------------------------

Naruto woke up as soon as the sun had risen, he looked over at Sasuke to find the raven's dark eyes staring at him. "How long have you been up?" he asked. "I woke up in the middle of the night and never went back to sleep." Naruto sat up, "Why didn't you wake me?" "I would have stayed up with you."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, "I don't need you to look after me, I'm fine." Naruto sighed getting out of his bed to sit on Sasuke's. "I don't think you are, your brother died yesterday you can't be fine." "Why not?" "Why can't I just accept it and move on." "Because I know you better than that." "I know Itachi's death is bothering you."

"You don't know anything!" Sasuke yelled jumping out of bed to stare angrily at the blond. Naruto was shocked by his sudden anger. He stood up facing Sasuke, his own anger getting the best of him. "Yes I do! You know I do, we've been through this before!"

"We share the same pain, we know what losing family is like!" "You cant tell me I know nothing about you when I understand you perfectly!" Sasuke backed into the wall, "Your wrong, you don't know anything!" "You keep trying to get me to talk to people, they'll never understand!" "You'll never understand!" "I hate it here!" "There all liars saying everything will be fine when it will never be!

"If it wasn't for my brother I wouldn't be here!" "You wouldn't be here!" "I hate you too, Naruto you keep thinking you can help me when you cant." "You know why?" "Because you have your own issues!" Naruto was taken aback by his words, they stung. Sasuke didn't hate him, it was just anger talking he knew it. But it still hurt.

"Your right I do have issues, but at least I talk about them." "I don't hold them in until I explode, I don't act like I hate everything and everyone because I'm too scared to talk about my past and how I feel." "At least I'm not a selfish, whiney brat like you, who won't let anyone care about them!"

Sasuke went silent staring angrily at the blonde. Naruto knew his words were hurtful but he didn't care right now. He wasn't going to sit back and let Sasuke insult him when all he was trying to do was help. They stood there in silence staring at each other until the door swung open and Kakashi rushed in, Iruka behind him.

"Is everything ok in here boys, we heard yelling." Kakashi asked. Looking confused at the scene before him. He could tell they had been arguing, they both looked angry and upset. Naruto gave Sasuke a hard look, "No everything's fine." He pushed past Iruka and Kakashi storming out the door.

The two counselors looked at Sasuke confusion written on both their faces. They wanted to know what had just happened between the two boys. A lovers spat or something more serious. "Sasuke what happened?" Iruka asked stepping into the room.

"It was nothing Naruto and I just had—a disagreement." "I'm sorry If we disturbed anyone." He walked past them out the door, his bangs covering his face darkly. Hiding his expression from the two concerned adults. Kakashi and Iruka exchanged glances before following the boys out of the room. Determined to get to the bottom of this.

------Sometimes you feel like your head is going to burst. --------------------------------------

Sasuke stared at his food, he pushed it away. Moving his attention to Naruto, the blonde was sitting at a table with a few friends he had made. He was laughing, how could he be laughing when they had just had a huge argument? He noticed Sakura sitting at a table behind the group, looking longingly at Naruto.

He glared at her then turned his attention back to Naruto. He didn't mean a thing he said. He just felt so angry and unfortunately he released that anger on Naruto. Naruto was right he was selfish and whiney. Naruto was only trying to help him, but he kept pushing him away.

He was only causing Naruto pain; he cared about Naruto he didn't want to hurt him anymore. He snuck out of the cafeteria back up to their room. He found a piece of paper and wrote a short note. He pulled out the notebook he wrote songs in, flipping it to a certain page and tearing it out.

He put the note with the song on his bed, he took his guitar and left the room. Content on never coming back so he would never cause anyone pain again. He couldn't apologize to Naruto it was too late. He couldn't take back what he said, he couldn't take back how he had acted to his brother either. He took his guitar and left, not looking back.

-------------Sometimes you feel like running because it's easier to------------------------------

Naruto sighed opening the door to his and Sasuke's room. He was hoping the raven was in there so he could apologize for what he had said earlier. He turned on the light finding that Sasuke wasn't there. He walked over to the bed finding a piece of paper lying on Sasuke's bed.

Naruto I know I can never take back what I said, but I'm sorry. I understand that you were only trying to help. I care about you, so I can't hurt you anymore. I don't want to hurt anyone anymore. The lyrics with this note are to a song I wrote not long ago, I wanted to play it for you one day. It unfortunately describes how I feel right now. I love you Naruto, goodbye.

Sasuke

Naruto looked at the lyrics in his hand.

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

It's was easier for Sasuke to run away from his problems, then face or talk about them. Running away was easier in his mind then trying to talk to someone. He knew he had Naruto to talk to, but he couldn't find the words to speak.

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see
Wounds so deep they never show they never go away
Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played

His brother was gone now, the last part of his torn past that he had left. He had cared about his brother more than he let on. He just wanted to hate him for not caring about his family's deaths. He could never get the past out of his mind, he would never move on to the future. He wanted out of the world.

(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(If I could take all the shame to the grave I would)
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

He wished that he could take back how he treated his brother. He wished he would have been nicer, held on to him longer. He wanted to be more open with Naruto but he had been cold and pushed him away. It was too late for apologies to late to fix what he had done.

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

He would run and run until he had escaped from his life. He wanted nothing more of it. He only messed things up.

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have
Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back
And never moving forward so there'd never be a past

His past was a topic he never liked talking about, but it was something Naruto understood because he felt the same pain that Sasuke did. He wanted to let it go, to leave the past were it belonged, but he found that he couldn't.

(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(If I could take all the shame to the grave I would)
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
It's so much simpler than change

It was all too much to face, running was much easier. He didn't want to leave Naruto behind. He truly loved him, but he didn't love himself.

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

It's easier to run
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made)
It's easier to go
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

"That idiot." Naruto whispered. He clinched his fist, crumpling the note. He shoved the papers into his pocket, running quickly out the door. He ran as fast as he could outside, searching every inch for a sign of Sasuke. His lungs were ready to burst when he found the dark haired boy sitting against a tree at the far edge of the garden. Something reflective in his hand.

Using the last bit of effort he had, he ran faster to where Sasuke was sitting. Angrily he snatched the kitchen knife out of the Uchiha's hand. Sasuke stared at him, his black eyes wide. "You idiot what are you doing, running away like that?" Naruto shouted his anger growing. "I was worried about you, I've been running around this mansion looking for you hoping you hadn't done anything stupid!" He looked down at Sasuke's arm that was bleeding badly.

Naruto fell down on his knees, ripping part of his shirt and bandaging Sasuke's self inflicted wounds. He sat back against the tree, the leaves and braches blocking the hot sun. The shadows felt cool and refreshing, he was completely worn out from searching. He sighed looking down at the knife In his hand, "Did you steal this from the kitchen?"

"Yes before I left." Sasuke stated calmly, looking out into the blue sky. "Why did you run off and hurt yourself on top of that?" "We're you trying to kill yourself?" Sasuke pulled his knees up to his chest. "I ran because I couldn't face you." "As for why I had the knife, I—don't know, I guess I do want to die."

Naruto pulled Sasuke roughly into a hug, tears where falling from his eyes making wet spots in Sasuke's T-shirt. "You call me an Idiot." Naruto whispered. "I love you, dummy. I will always love you. I didn't mean anything that I said, it was all lies." "your not whiney or selfish and I know it's hard for you to talk about your problems." "I'm sorry." Sasuke gripped tightly onto the back of Naruto's shirt, tears were coming from his closed eyes.

"I love you too." Sasuke said. Naruto pulled back wiping the tears from Sasuke's eyes gently. "The song you wrote was awesome, and someday I want you to play it for me yourself." Sasuke smiled and nodded. Their lips met, feelings neither had felt in a while coursed through them. They knew they could make it as long as they had each other. "Why did you bring your guitar with you?" Naruto asked noticing the instrument lying against the tree trunk. "I wanted it to be with me when someone—found me." Naruto picked it up, "I want to play a song I wrote for you." Sasuke nodded sitting back to listen.

Just One more moment, that's all that's needed.
Like wounded soldiers in need of healing.
Time to be honest, this time I'm bleeding
Please don't dwell on it, cause I didn't mean it
I cant believe I said I'd lay our love on the ground
But it doesn't matter cause I've made it up forgive me now
Everyday I spend away my souls inside out
Gotta be someway that I can make it up to you now, somehow.

Naruto didn't mean a word he said to Sasuke during their argument, he was just angry and when you're angry you say things you don't mean. He loved Sasuke and couldn't believe he'd almost lost him. If he hadn't found him in time he would have lost the only person he truly cared about forever.

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

I was blindfolded, but now I'm seeing
My mind was closing, now I'm believing
I finally know just what it means to let someone in
To see the side of me that no one does or ever will
So if your ever lost and find yourself all alone
I'd search forever just to bring you home,
Here and now this I vow

He would have chased Sasuke to the edges of the Earth just to bring him back, he would never give up until he could hold him in his arms again. After his parents murders he didn't care about anyone and didn't really want anyone to get close to him. But now he cared about Sasuke so much that it hurt and he'd never be stupid and give it up.

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
You know I'd always come for you

Yes I'd come for you, no one but you,
Yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to

If he had to he would die for Sasuke, he loved him that much. He knew that Sasuke was just like him and needed his help, Sasuke would never admit it but he needed him.
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you

Naruto had been staring into Sasuke's eyes the whole time he had been singing, he watched as tears poured out of the corners of the Uchiha's eyes. "You wrote that for me?" he squeaked. "Yes and every word of it is from my heart." Sasuke wiped the tears from his eyes. "I liked it and—I'm glad I have you to care about me." Naruto smiled pulling Sasuke into a hug. "I'm glad I have someone to care about."

---Sometimes you feel like you're lost with nowhere to go. ------------------------------------

Kakashi and Iruka were waiting when the pair walked into the mansion. Iruka immediately hugged both of them babbling about how worried he was about both of them. Kakashi pulled him back giving Sasuke a cold stare. He had been just as worried as Iruka and he most of all wanted to know why in the world Sasuke had ran off in the first place.

They sat both boys down in the councilors room, both eager to find out exactly what had happened after the boys had fought. "Naruto where did you find Sasuke?" Kakashi asked. "Near the garden he was sitting underneath a tree." Kakashi noted the bloody cloth wrapped around Sasuke's wrist. "What did he do to himself?" Naruto glanced apologetically at Sasuke. "He cut his arm with a knife from the kitchen."

Iruka looked over to Sasuke who had his head hung down looking at the floor. "Sasuke why did you hurt yourself?" Sasuke looked up. "I—I don't know I was upset, the pain just found it's own way out." "Were going to be keeping a closer eye on you from now on to make sure this doesn't happen again." Kakashi said. Sasuke nodded not really knowing what to say.

"Have you two resolved your argument or is that we need to talk about next?" Iruka asked. "We made up if that's what you want to know." Sasuke said. "That's good then, there's one more thing we would like to ask you before your free to go." Iruka said. "You two are very talented musicians and would like if you would open for our annual talent show."

Sasuke and Naruto glanced at each other, did they really want to play in a talent show. They nodded at each other, what could be the harm in it though? "We'll do it." Naruto answered for both of them. "That's great, the talent show is in two weeks be prepared by then." Iruka said. "Your free to go we like to let you solve your problems with others amongst yourselves but we'll be keeping a close eyes on you." Kakashi added.

Both boys nodded and quickly went for the door but before they got out Kakashi stopped them. "Make sure to treat that wound properly Sasuke." "I will." Sasuke said. Kakashi let them go and the two scampered off.

Sasuke was glad to be in the comfort of his and Naruto's room again. Naruto found a first aid kit and quickly bandaged Sasuke's arm for him. Sasuke watched as Naruto worked he knew he would be reminded of what he had almost done for years because of the scar the cut would leave behind. He had wanted to leave this world merely a few hours ago. Now he didn't want to go anywhere he had finally realized how much Naruto meant to him and how Naruto truly cared about him. He didn't want to give any of it up.

"Naruto I'm sorry I was so stupid if I would have killed myself I would have only hurt you more." "Enough with the I'm sorry's we're both sorry for what we did, we should just leave it behind us." "Your right I'm—Naruto cut him off kissing him fiercely. "I said no more sorry's." Sasuke smiled, "Alright no more but if I said it again would you kiss me again.?" Naruto's lips met his again. "I'd kiss you no matter what."

--------------Sometimes you feel frozen as people pass you by----------------------------------

Life around the recovery camp had returned to somewhat normal, people were getting ready for the upcoming talent show. Everyone was excited because the talent show was their chance to show what they could do plus everyone new The Hebi members Naruto and Sasuke were going to be opening. Well mostly everyone Sakura only fumed when she heard the news. She knew that the boys were together and had even spread the rumor around but no one cared they all though it was cute! She should have been the one with Naruto not Sasuke, but there wasn't a thing she could do about it.

Among everyone that was getting ready Naruto and Sasuke were comfortable in their room cuddled together working on the song that they would be performing. They were told a band would be there to play the music so they decided they would sing. It had been almost two weeks since they had fought, Sasuke had opened up a lot more to Naruto but mainly just him he didn't feel comfortable talking to Iruka or Kakashi. Kakashi and Iruka were happy he was talking to someone. Both boys were being more open with each other and their relationship was much better.

The pain of his brothers death was still there but slowly he was starting to come to terms with it. He had been contacted by Suigetsu, Karin and Juggo and told that they had a new manager, his name was Jiraya and he was a complete pervert. They couldn't wait for him to meet this guy. He had laughed and told them it wouldn't be that bad and they would be back in the band by the end of the month. He hadn't told them about him and Naruto he wanted it to be a surprise.

He missed his brother but he knew he was in a better place with their parents and he wasn't meant to be with them right now. For now he belonged in Naruto's arms which was where he was now. Leaning comfortable against the blonde he pointed to words on the lyrics sheet they already had the music ready and once the lyrics were finished they could start practicing. They were inurupted by a knock at the door and Iruka walking through. "Boys come downstairs I have good news."

They looked at each other confused before following Iruka downstairs where the only television was kept. The news was on in bold letters at the bottom of the screen: Murder arrested was written. Both boys eyes widened at seeing the picture of the man on the screen. "Tha—that's him the one who killed my parents." Naruto whispered. Joy overcome him the man who had killed his whole family had been arrested. "Naruto, that man killed your family too?" Sasuke asked over hearing what Naruto had said.

"Yea, wait too? You mean you're the other boy who's family was killed two years before mine?" "Yea that's the man that ruined both our lives I never would have thought he was responsible for both of our families murders." "wow we never knew, I had heard that he killed a young boys family two years earlier. Who would have guessed that boy was you." Naruto said. "We had more in common then we knew." Sasuke added.

Both of them felt a kind of closure, knowing that the man responsible for their families murders was in jail and would hopefully rot there. "I thought you two would like to know about this." Iruka said smiling. "Thanks for telling us." Naruto said.

They went back to their room curling back up together on Naruto's bed. "I cant believe one person killed both of our families." Naruto side leaning back on the headboard. "I know it's weird how we found each other." Sasuke said leaning against Naruto. Naruto wrapped his arms around him, "I'm glad we found each other." Naruto said kissing Sasuke softly. Sasuke smiled "Yea me too, lets get back to work on this song."

----------Sometimes you feel so sad you cry--------------------------------------------------------

The talent show had finally arrived and everyone was crowded in the auditorium of the mansion eagerly awaiting the opening performance by The Hebi's Naruto and Sasuke. Meanwhile back stage the two were getting ready themselves. "Are you tow ready?" Kakashi asked. They nodded, hands joined they walked out onto the stage. They walked up to the two microphones standing side by side. The crowd roared at their appearance. "Lets get this talent show started!" Naruto yelled into the microphone getting the crowd excited.

"This is a new song Sasuke and I wrote just for this show, I hope you enjoy it." The band started playing and Naruto began singing.

You come to me with scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this

It was Sasuke's turn next he took a breath and sang the next part of the song.

I just came to say goodbye
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine

It was Naruto's part again.

But I know it's a lie


This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be.
The last night you'll spend alone,
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go,
I'm everything you need me to be.

Naruto looked directly at Sasuke while he was singing the lyrics. This song was mainly about how much he cared about him. How he would protect him from anything.

Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you they don't know you at all

Sasuke kept his eyes on Naruto as well they had both put their feelings into this song. He opened his mouth for his part.

I'm so sick of when they say
It's just a phase, you'll be o.k. you're fine

Naruto was the only one who knew it wasn't going to be fine just by saying that it was. He knew pain and loneliness and he loved Sasuke through every rough spot they hit. He smiled as Naruto started singing again.


But I know it's a lie.
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be.
The last night you'll spend alone,
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go,
I'm everything you need me to be.

The last night away from me

In this song Naruto was saying that Sasuke would never have to be alone again that he had him to hold him and love him and make everything ok. Sasuke was his and he wouldn't let anyone hurt him now or in the future.The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand I will help you hold on
Tonight,
Tonight.
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be.
The last night you'll spend alone,
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go,
I'm everything you need me to be.

Sasuke was his everything and he wanted to be with him forever and no matter what bumps they met along the road he knew they could get through them as long as they had each other.

I won't let you say goodbye,
I'll be your reason why.

The last night away from me,
Away from me.

When Naruto had found Sasuke he thought that he had killed himself he had been angry and scared at the thought that he had lost the only person he cared about. He would never let Sasuke fall that much. He would be his reason for living his reason for loving.

The crowd cheered as the song ended, Sasuke had helped write the song but he was getting teary eyed by how perfect the lyrics were for them. He never knew that Naruto could sing so well, through the whole song they hadn't taken their eyes off each other. In a moment of bravery Naruto pulled Sasuke to him and kissed him. The action received ahh's from the crowd. When they parted the crowd was going crazy for the cute moment. Naruto kept his arm around Sasuke's waist when turning back to the crowd.

"Thanks for being such a great audience I hope you enjoyed the song, now give it up for the first contestant Ino." The blonde girl walked on stage as they left. They went backstage getting congrats from the other contestants and Iruka and Kakashi. "You were brave to kiss me like that, dobe." Sasuke said sitting down in a folding chair. "I thought it fit the moment well, teme."

"The song went perfect I didn't think it would turn out so beautiful." Sasuke admitted. "We'll what can you expect from two great song writers?" "I guess your right." The blonde leaned on the back of Sasuke's chair, wrapping his arms around the raven. "The song is true; you don't have to be alone anymore." "I know." Sasuke said tilting his head up to kiss Naruto.

-------Sometimes you feel nothing at all---------------------------------------------------

The music in the club bounced off the walls as people danced to the beat, swaying their bodies in sync to the music. The couple in the middle of it all was none other than Naruto and Sasuke. They laughed as they danced together, glad for the break from their rock star lives. They had been released from the camp six months ago and since then they had gotten even closer, absolutely inseparable. The rest of the band was happy to have them back and they had been right when they said Jiraya was a total pervert but Naruto got along great with the guy.

There lives were going well, they were stronger then they were before they left, they hadn't hit a rough spot yet but they knew when they did as long as they had each other and their friends they could make it through anything.

But when you walk into the light.

You feel yourself come back alive.

You feel the warmth your calm inside.

You smile and walk into the sky.

THE End
